Service to fetch and print email and attachments (discuss.tchncs.de)

Hi fellow self-hosting lemmings,

In an SME setting, I'm looking for a service to regularly fetch mails from an IMAP server and print incoming mails and attachments on a local network printer based on rules (e.g., only print mails where the subject contains a specific word.)

Does a solution like that exist, ideally with a browser frontend to set it up?

Thank you!

I do actually use Node-RED myself for my zigbee home automation. Funny how it never crossed my mind to pick it up for this. It's perfect as I want a non-programmer to be able to maintain it.

I doubt my solution will be much more than ingest and print, but I'll report back. Still fighting to get that hp p3015 to do something over IPP...
